It's too fricking early for the Xmas music. A local station (102.5 FM) started it up

2. Call up at least 20 times a day and request that "Alvin & The Chipmonks" Christmas song.
If they're going to annoy you with that crap this early, start annoying THEM with it.

On a funny note, we put a new CD from a local artist in a magazine for the changer and put it on. We were outside with those speakers on and partway through the album, the song just stopped. There was a delay and BOOM - Bing Crosby doing that "do you hear what I hear" Christmas song (forget the title). AAARRGHH!! - that was over a month ago!

Note to self: clear out the CD changer magazines after Christmas this year.

7. So do I - that's not the point. The POINT is to annoy the station!

5. Lots of people don't. I saw enough still up around doorways when canvassing
back in September and October. But people usually don't turn them on in early November

8. I understand the feeling, BUT..
as a big Christmas lover, it doesn't bother me. I start preparing for Christmas after Halloween and am in holiday mode by around the 13th. The stores are really looking nice now. They should have two parts of a station (only available on HD): Christmas songs and regular songs for people who think it's early.

9. I don't mind it after Thanksgiving now (used to think it was too early)
But the time flies so quickly - I try to enjoy Christmas music now while it's the season!
